The Quantitative Model of Curb Parking Impacts on Traffic Flow Delay

Abstract:

This paper presents a quantitative analysis model of curb parking impacts on traffic flow delay. Whether a road is appropriate setting curb parking is quantitatively analyzed. Based on the variation of traffic delay on a road with curb parking lots, the impacts of curb parking facilities on traffic flow are analyzed. The traffic delay caused by curb parking activities that under both low and high volume conditions are researched. A model respectively using discrete, continuous values of delay as evaluation indicator is built. The validity of the model is tested through application examples.
